Moonfall

By: Wes Luxton

They won't give us a cut

Baby we've been bleeding

They rockin' snapback halos

While we live with demons

And I tell you how unlovable I feel

You say you don't know the words

Happy I breathe life back in you

Remember when your lungs were burnt

Mood swings getting interjected

Bumpin' heads maybe we're too connected

Past heads into second guessing

Like why you always put me second

Scrolling screens I feel rejected

Why we always fighting

Tekken

Stupid do you get the message

Don't know why you're so excessive

Baby, I hear every sentence

It's getting hard to count my blessings.

Except for you girl you're so precious.

So aggressive tad obsessive and closed off.

Yo why you gotta storm off

Baby open the doorknob

I mean tell me whys the door locked

I don't wanna be a heart throb

You see I've been having hard thoughts

I swear now it's just us

I need you to listen

You're the only one who listens when the song stops

I'm over getting lost in the shortcuts

It's been a long road hard walk

Dirty hotels and empty lots

Spitballs and lemon talks

Bartenders singing last call

We'll probably never dose off

I know we always run from shadows

And dip our toes in the moonfall

You make me feel like Jimmy Fallon

Kick it back to The Roots

I'm inspired again babe

What should we do

If I suppress it again

Than my screws coming loose

And I love you dearly

I'm just trying to improve

You know I'm a flower child

And only bloom in the booth

Just let me hit the studio

What's one afternoon

Just hold my hands

Baby get in the groove

We don't need to be ahead

We'll pay the rent when it's due

Revise the money

What's a new tattoo

If they wanna gossip

Leave us out of the loop

We'll learn one day

What's more taboo

Somethings make me wonder

I got topics to debunk

Why we on our best behavior

If the good die young

When I'm facing lack of labor

Why not hit lick me some funds

And when shit gets too heated

Why not dip flip go get me a gun

Words blend

Something start to sound the same

Think I'll head to bed soon

You know that means I'm writing late

Telling me that you'd die for me

One day we'll be sharing tape

I just need a family bond

I'm so sick of Sharron Tates’

Temptations descend

Reality check

Whiteboard erase

Complain create

Make mistakes

Persuade

Break bread say grace

Wes fed us it hit five lakes

A life without him

Birth sealed our fate

Lost lost lost in the shortcuts

It's been a long road hard walk

Dirty hotels and empty lots

Spitballs and lemon talks

Bartenders singing last call

We'll probably never dose off

I know we always run from shadows

And dip our toes in the moonfall
